Currently under restoration in our shop is a 1973 Ram Air 455 4 speed Formula with A/C. According to PHS this appears to be only one of 277 produced in this combination.
I have built a date code correct special 461ci engine with Comp Cams valve train parts, Ferrea valves, and Probe single valve relief pistons. The engine is backed by an M-21 Muncie and a Pontiac 10 bolt 3:08:1 safe-T-track disc brake rear end. Upgrades to the suspension have already been completed and the underside is finished as well. We have upgraded the stock brakes to four wheel disc (all Pontiac pieces) with a front rotor upgrade. The suspension has been upgraded with all polyurethane bushing and spring pads supplied by PST. The front sway bar is 1.25" and the rear is a 7/8'. Both bars are standard Pontiac pieces.

After a lenghty process (almost 2 years of waiting) Mike and Gary Lewis of Gary's Body Shop in Decatur Ga. have finished the paint and body work on this car. The Ascot silver paint is flawless and slick as a baby's butt!! The car is now back at our new shop in Rincon, Ga. The arduous task of assembly begins!!! The stainless and aluminum trim is all polished and ready for installation. We have the drive train built and ready for it's installation as well. I'm anxious to see what the power output on this 461 will be. The computer tells me it should be around 600 lbs/ft of torque , so we'll see.
As of January 2012 the engine has been installed. We are working on installing the RARE exhaust. The enterior is being finished as I type this. My goal is to have the car ready by May and have it at the Ban One show in Atlanta. Wish me luck.

This car is for sale. Please feel free to contact us if you are interested in this rare opportunity.
